I traveled through time without patched pants, I was the richest man in the Republic of China

Xu Ayu saw that Sister Lan was frightened and patted her on the back.

She put down her chopsticks and snorted coldly:

"If your parents disagree, let them come to me."

Many fish looked at their aunt with admiration and said flatteringly:

"How can I not go back, little aunt? I can't bear to leave you."

After taking the chopsticks that Wei Miao picked up, Sister Xu Lan's expression looked much better.

She clenched her chopsticks tightly and heard Xu Ayu's words, asking her:

"Then you don't miss your parents?"

Many fish stopped talking, of course it was just what she was thinking, but she preferred her current life.

Even though she had to run after the train every day and her body and head were covered with coal dust, she felt happy from the bottom of her heart. Perhaps this is the freedom that Teacher Li talked about.

Wei Ada was suffering from a wound and couldn't eat fish, so he ate the chicken soup specially made by Xu Ayu.

He whispered to Wei Miao who was sitting next to him:

"Ah Miao, is Dad's rickshaw not ready yet?"

Wei Miao did not understand his urgency, but did not laugh at him. Instead, he replied patiently in a low voice:

"Dad, when I go to Suzhou River with Sister Lan the next day, I'll go to the repair shop to check it out. If it's fixed, I'll bring it back to you."

"Good, good, good," Wei A was so happy that he said three good words in a row.

After hearing this, Wei Dong, who was held in Wei Ran's arms, also said in a childish voice:

"Good! Good! Good!"

Wei Ada happily picked up his bowl and fed Wei Dong chicken soup with a spoon. Looking at the eager eyes of his little daughter Wei Ping, he gave the rest to her.

When Xu Ayu saw this, he didn't scold him for being crazy.

Early in the morning on the day before Mid-Autumn Festival, the weather was clear and the sun was shining brightly.

Wei Miao, who had been digging a hole all night, was the first to get up. He took three silver dollars from his secret base and put them in the small bag he was carrying.

When I went out to wash and brush my teeth, a cool breeze blew towards me, and the broad leaves of the magnolia tree in the next yard swirled and fell to the ground, a beautiful yellow color.

Ali rubbed against her feet obediently, and his little tail would occasionally hook her calf. When he saw Wei Miao looking at him, he meowed in a pinched voice.

Li Xiaoya, who opened the door to the east room, saw the interaction between the man and the cat, chuckled, and said softly:

"The little guy is a master, and he only stays close to you. Yesterday I took some dried fish to tease him, but he ignored me."

The early morning sun shone on Li Xiaoya's unmade-up face, and the autumn wind ruffled her black hair. At this moment, Li Xiaoya was beautiful in Wei Miao's eyes.

When Xu Ayu's nagging voice sounded, a new day began for the whole family.

After lunch, Xu Ayu asked the three children to carry the prepared things and urged them to go out quickly.

When Wei Miao walked to the door, Wei Ada looked at her with hope and expectation.

"Dad, take good care of yourself at home. I will definitely ask for the specific time for you."

Wei Ada's face suddenly lit up with joy, Xu Ayu rolled his eyes and said to him:

"You'd better go home soon. The weather is getting colder now. Take good care of your chickens! Don't let my three chickens down."

Brother Cai's three chickens lasted Xu Ayu a month.

A small part of it went into Wei Ada's stomach, and most of it was secretly distributed to the younger ones.

He always complained with a frown on his face, "I'm not a new mother in confinement. It's a waste to eat chicken every day."

This made Wei Ping and the other little ones think that Wei Ada didn't like drinking chicken soup and eating meat.

While eating the soft stewed chicken, the kids were very confused about the adults' taste, and at the same time were glad that they had not grown up yet.

When Wei Miao left, Xu Ayu gave her a dollar so that she could buy some meat, oil and salt on the way.

"Hurry up, the sooner you go, the sooner you'll be back."

Many fishes put on new clothes, tied their hair into two small braids, pouted their lips and made their last struggle:

"Aunt, I don't want to go back."

She definitely won't be able to come after she goes back. During the time when she and her eldest sister were away, who knows what kind of trouble her second sister might be making at home.

This time when she goes back, her eldest sister will go out to work, and her second sister will definitely come to her aunt's house, so she will be left at home to help her father.

Xu Ayu said impartially:

"Mid-Autumn Festival should be celebrated at home, for family reunion."

Many fish had sad faces and followed Wei Miao and Sister Xu Lan with their heads down.

"Ah Miao, this is your cousin, she's so pretty."

Familiar neighbors began to greet me.

Sister Lan's face turned red with shyness, but the tomboy Duoyu held her head high and said to the aunt who was talking:

"Aunt, you said I was a dirty black egg yesterday."

As she spoke, the aunt took a closer look and saw that she was wearing clean new clothes, her hair and face were clean, and she looked very bright. After a while, she suddenly realized:

"It's you three who carry a big basket of coal back early every morning!"

Many fish laughed, patted their chests proudly, and asked:

"Aunt, does your family need coal slag?"

Auntie's eyes lit up and she nodded quickly, "Yes, yes!"

"Then I'll sell it to you at a low price." As soon as Manyuyu finished speaking, the smile on Auntie's face also disappeared.

Xiao Jiangsu's wonton stall is full of people, and his business gets better as the weather gets cooler.

"Ah Miao, your father can now get out of bed and walk around."

Wei Miao ignored the various looks from those eating wontons, smiled and said:

"Thank you for your concern, uncle. Dad can get out of bed and bask in the sun now."

"Oh, may the Buddha bless you."

Someone stared at Wei Miao and asked tentatively:

"Ah Miao, I heard that the car dealership gave your father a lot of things?"

When asked this question, the seven or eight people eating wontons at the stall all looked over.

Although they lived in the same alley, after finding out that Wei Ada was shot, none of them dared to visit him, fearing that they might get into trouble.

In today's Shanghai, power is overlapping. The Japanese, Britain, France, the United States, Germany, Russia, various spy organizations, and gang members are all showing off their skills.

Although they are all civilians trying to make a living, there are differences between those living inside and outside the concession.

Wei Miao didn't want to keep the topic on himself, so he asked them with a smile:

"Uncles, you were chatting animatedly just now, what were you talking about?"

One of the middle-aged men wearing glasses carefully unfolded the newspaper in his hand and said politely:

"Ah Miao, is the guy who came to your house to cause trouble called Dong Ergou?"

Wei Miao glanced at the newspaper in his hand and saw a photo of a corpse that had been bitten beyond recognition.

"Are you talking about Mr. Dong?"

Little Jiangsu next to him couldn't hold back his words and said while making wontons:

"Oh, you know what, he got what he deserved."

Many fish asked hurriedly, "What happened? Did you break your leg? Or did you get stuck while eating fish?"

Her words made the group of people burst out laughing.

"No, he and my mother were just at home, but they were raided by some wild cats and dogs and were mauled to death."

Some people lamented, "In this world, cats and dogs are eating people. How can we live?"
